About the event
We are hosting true Highland Games clinics where men and women will have the opportunity to learn the rules and fundamentals of the heavy athletics. These events are conducted by world record-holding professional athletes. Weights will vary between women’s and men’s classes.
Instruction will be given in the following events:
Clachneart (Open Stone)
“Putting the stone” is most comparable to the shot put you’ve seen in track and field events. The stone weighs 16 pounds for men, 9 pounds for women, and must be thrown with one hand only from in front of the shoulder. Traditionally the same stone is used from year to year on the same grounds.
